Don't ever tell me there are conservatives in MA.  Ever.  If there were, ya'll would band together and get rid of some of these idiots.

But noooooooo...ya'll are like abused spouses, coming out of the trailer after Daddy-Democrat is done using you as a punching bag, and time after time, you keep pulling the lever, going back to them, "Because he loves me!"

Yeah, go ahead and put that out there.  What did MA do last November?

We took back our Legislature, our state Senate, BOTH House seats, and damn near took the Governors office--and in fact he's known as the GINO, with the 3-1 GOP majorities in both houses.

You?  You still have Deville Patrick.  You still have all but a handful of state offices in the hands of the 'Rats.  EVERY SINGLE CONGRESSMAN is a Democrat.  If Scott Brown faced election today, he'd likely lose--and he may well next year.

So again, yawn.  But deep down you know I'm right.

A poll out this week from Wester New England College finds that a majority of registered voters in deep blue Massachusetts give Brown good marks on his job approval. In addition, Brown tops a couple of potential Democratic challengers in head-to-head matchups.

Fifty-seven percent of registered voters said they approve of Brown's job performance, while only one-quarter said they disapproved. That's even better than fellow Massachusetts Senator John Kerry's approval rating; while 57% of voters also approved of Kerry's job performance, a larger number, 34%, disapproved.

In hypothetical 2012 contests, Brown led Rep. Mike Capuano (D) 51% to 38%, and topped Elizabeth Warren -- the Harvard professor and liberal favorite for her support of stricter financial regulation -- by a comfortable 51% to 34%. And though Capuano and Warren don't have Brown's name recognition, that's not the only reason he holds such strong leads on them. Over half of all respondents (52%) said Brown deserves to be reelected.

McGovern is in the heart of the conservative area of MA, but he is owned by the unions that dominate the state so he won readily against a very lame tea party candidate Marty Lamb.   There were a few very strong (R) candidates in that race that lost out in the primaries because of the tea party -- which really blew it on this candidate as they did zero vetting.   Bielat will run against Frank again, and will come out stronger.   Especially if Frank's district gets redone, which is predicted to happen.

The redistricting may end up hurting the Democrats in 2012.   No idea how that is going to work out.

It ain't gonna be him.  He's too senior.

And frankly, touting Brown as some sort of sign that MA is going conservative is, well, horseshit.  As he's shown so far, he's anything but.  If he WAS acting like a conservative in the Senate, he'd be out on his ass next year, and you know it.

Finally, at the state level, nothing changed, nothing will EVER change.  Even you can't deny that, fl.

Oh, quit with the snark and tell me where I'm ****ing wrong already!  Seriously, do you realize how silly you sound when you thump your chest about "Massachusetts conservatives" and then keep sending the same ****ing people back to Beacon Hill and DC?

Just in case you're wondering:

They are a little more pragmatic than me, but even they recognize he's about as RINO-esque as Snowe and Collins.

Didn't a certain poster here make claims during the election season that no conservative could win in a state like MA?  Or words to that effect?

Weren't some of us chastised for not acknowledging the "reality" of politics when we expressed concerns about how Brown would act if elected?

My memory ain't what it used to be, but I do seem to recall a thread like that.

Where did I thump my chest about MA conservatives Sparky?    Central MA is made up of moderate conservatives.  You do know the difference right?

NH is also moderate conservatives.   If you are trying to sell me that NH is conservative (save for the loon libertarians you all seem to have an abundance of) then it is you that is quite delusional.  

I explained to you why there is no Republican Congressmen in MA.    Our state republican party leader, Jennifer Nassour, really dropped the ball the past election cycle by lack of focus on key races that had a very good chance of winning (Polito and Connaughton).    She was almost ousted by the party delegates, learned from her mistakes and has regrouped and plotted new plans.    

We captured some more seats in the state legislature, are raising good money, and are moving forward.   Things are changing.  

Scott Brown has a war chest and no one can touch him (maybe Joe Kennedy, but he isn't running).    He wins in 2012 easily.    He took the seat held by a communist.   I really could give a flying fig if you think he's a RINO.    

Next.

I also want to point out the far majority of Congressmen in my state are long-termers.   It is extremely difficult to unseat an incumbent from the start, but add to that the fight against the lobbyists and special interest groups that own those Congressmen and spend lots of money supporting their re-elections, and your battle just got more impossible.  

McGovern whined like a school girl to the redistricting committee last week to leave his district alone.   Uh-huh.   They're coming for you Jim.   Next time the candidate won't be a tea party sponsored loser who filed for bankruptcy.   Enjoy it while it lasts.

Your contribution to threads is nothing worth noting.  Sad you don't notice that - perhaps it has something to do with your faulty memory.

The "loon libertarians" you point out are the FSPer's who are more LIBERALtarians, pretty much confined to Keene, and are a joke.

And believe me, there are a hell of a lot more of us conservatives in tiny little Cow Hampshire than there are in all of Mass.  Things changing in Mass?  From bad to worse, maybe.
